h2o's conference rooms are finished!
The upstairs floor of the main building opened in July! We can now offer our guests conference rooms for 30, 80, or 150. There are also guest rooms and a hangout area. We've already hosted many events such as a sexual purity conference for teenagers, junior high conferences, camps, board meetings, Outback weekends, Fala's Christmas party, and much more. And it's air conditioned!

Construction is going well upstairs in the main building! The photos may still look like there's a lot of rough walls, but this week the builders started plastering the 7 new hotel rooms where the old kitchen use to be. The room straight off the future elevator will be for handicapped people! Since we often have guests from Czech, Slovakia, and even Ireland, we've also added space for a translation booth for up to four people.

Due to God's amazing provision, last fall we were able to renew reconstruction, winterizing five more cabins and reconstructing the top floor of the main building. We hope to finish it for campers this summer! This will increase our winter capacity to 80 in the cabins and 20 in the main building for a total of 100! The upstairs will have meeting rooms for 200, 80 and 40. Two cabins have already been renovated with new bathrooms, doors, windows and ceilings and interior and exterior insulation and three more are being insulated. In the main building we've already installed water, ventilation, gas, heating, and a fire doors in the ceiling. We can't wait to see the finished product and use it for God's glory this summer!

This summer, h2o was a place where Polish young people were introduced to the love of Jesus! In July, three youth groups, from 3 different cities came together and had an English/Volleyball camp! It was not only a place to learn English and volleyball, but also a safe place to meet new friends and learn about the love of Jesus is for everyone! There were 98 campers and 30 of these campers made decisions to follow Jesus and be in a relationship with Him. We rejoice and give God the Glory for how He has used this facility to build HIS Kingdom!

In September of 2011, Josiah Venture Poland had h2o's Grand Opening! It was a wonderful time! As this project is still ongoing, we are slowing transitioning this page into what will be an ministry update page. We still have more work to do at h2o, but we are up and running as a camp and conference center!

Here is a video to show you how far we have come! We still have a journey ahead of us, but God has been and we believe, will continue to be gracious in the fulfillment of this dream for Poland!

Even though our official Grand Opening is not until later this year, we are "trying out" H2O to see how we can best serve the people of Poland! The last weekend of May was Josiah Venture/Fala's Pre-Camp Conference for the Polish youth groups. We were able to try out the cabins, main room, and all the extras! It was a joy to see how God will use this camp in the coming years! We are not finished with our Extreme Makeover, but the first step in opening H2O this year is here!

Send A Team!

“Camp h2o” is Josiah Venture / Fala’s Camp and Training Center in Southern Poland. It is half an hour from the beautiful Beskidy Mountains and many ski resorts & hiking areas. This 17.5-acre facility has a private lake for fishing or kajaking, two swimming pools, a basketball court, two sand volleyball courts, a soccer field, and an amphitheater. It is just 20 meters from the Vistula River and its 60 km bike path.
The camp's main lodge and 14 cabins - available year-round - is a wonderful place for camps, conferences, leadership training programs, retreats, sports, and other events.
Though h2o is open and hosting groups, we still need to do an extreme makeover on 5 cabins and build a sanitary building for the campground.
